Uncharted 2 surprise is free "The Fort" multiplayer map

Remember that surprise announcement for Uncharted 2 that we mentioned earlier today? It’s a new multiplayer map called “The Fort”, based on the Fortress chapter from Drake’s Fortune.

According to Naughty Dog, the level will be a “long rectangular map with wide open spaces and excellent flank routes”. Tunnels lead into the basement, and a lonely shotgun sits in the center of the map, with an RPG in the side room of the crypt.

Alongside the new map, some new features will b added to the multi-player menu, including  leaderboards and unique player cards.

Thanksgiving will also see some special celebrations in-game, apparently.

When you join a competitive Multiplayer match on Thanksgiving weekend, you’ll be greeted with a slightly different look to our Heroes and Villians. It looks like Drake and Lazarevic had a few too many helpings of turkey (or Tofurkey), green bean casserole and, most definitely, sweet potato casserole.

We also flipped a few switches and bits here and there and not only is Double Cash weekend back, but you’ll be getting 2x the cash from any and all medals you are awarded during the course of a competitive or cooperative match. The per-match limits of $50,000 are still in effect, so if you’re just that good, you’ll be maxing out just about all the time.

And hey, you can’t argue with that price, can you?
